My husband and I really enjoyed the Ground Zero Museum Workshop tour. This is a must do. While the size may fool you, there is so much to see and learn! The pictures and artifacts are amazing! This is something that you must do when you go to NYC.
This is a must do and see... Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

It was nothing like we expected. The "smallness" of the environment only made the overall experience more touching, meaningful, and real. The guide was informative and honest. Although touching some of the reminants just didn't seem right to me, being in such close proximity to everything was surreal, amazing. I would recommend this to anyone visiting NY.
thought provoking Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Was not senstionalized, yet very sensitive & thought provoking. Helped realize what the recovery workers went through--although you could never realize the full intensity unless you were actually there. Thought the project was done with a great deal of dignity & respect for all involved.

We enjoyed your museum workshop tour so much that we have already recommended it to several people, in NYC and at home. The set up of the museum was user friendly and the museum itself was easy to find even for its out of the way location. After the tour from the photographer himself, he recommended a great place for our lunch. We highly recommend this tour and may even come again on future trips.
Awesome and thought provoking Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This was amazing and was something that we talked about doing, but wasn't on our main list to do. After we decided to do it, we were so glad we took the time to do it. It was a bit odd that it wasn't near Ground Zero and the location, but once we knew the story behind the location, etc. it brought it all full circle for us. This is not something you'd be able to see anywhere else and we were all very touched and were really quite for the next few hours just thinking and soaking in the pictures and information we heard about and learned about. It is a MUST see in NYC.
Moving Tribute Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Sat, Aug 25, 07 1:00 PM	Nicole2007	Female	40-49	International Tourist(s)	Individual
6 years after that horible tragedy I'm still very emotionnal when I talked about , read about or see things about it. I was really move by all the artifacts and the pictures. Even if I am a foreign language speakin person, I was able to do the tour with headphones and explanations in my own language and it was really welll traduce. I think the tour can be done in 4 other languages than english. Even if Mr Suson was not there for that tour, the 2 young gentlemen who assists us were very helpful and were able to answer all the questions I direct to them. I start promoting this tour to every friend who will go to New-York and be sure I WILL NEVER FORGET
Great Experiance Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We had the good fortune to meet Gary and hear first hand how the rescure and recovery workers battled through the intence emotional and physical demands at ground zero. His exibits are truly eye opening and everything there grabs at the heart strings. I highly recommend visiting this exibit. If you don't speak English, bring a translator as the presentation and explanation of the displays are currently in English only.
Amazing and very emotional... Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Thu, Aug 23, 07 11:30 AM	bhspath	Female	40-49	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family With Children
It was the smallest, but also the most moving, museum I have ever visited, and worth every penny of the admission price. The small size was initially startling. It is a small one-room studio space filled with photographic images, small items, and debris from the Ground Zero recovery, all captured or collected by artist Gary Suson. The items and images are numbered, and there are headsets with brief audio narratives about each item provided by the artist himself. You can listen to as many or as few as you wish. It is intimate, personal, and deeply emotional, and they have thoughfully provided sofas and plenty of tissues. There are also videotapes including an interview with the artist and a montage of his images with emergency calls from that fateful day. The overwhelming focus is on the Ground Zero recovery and the personal stories of those involved - the often-seen images of the planes' impact or the towers falling are conspicuously absent. In the faces and postures of the FDNY workers and recovery teams he has captured despair, exhaustion, determination, but also hope and resilience. His photos are exquisite, especially when one begins to understand the environment and the working conditions in which they were captured. A book of his images, as well as posters and postcards were available for purchase. The museum may not be appropriate for small children who would likely become quickly bored. However, my 13-year-old was as moved as I was.
More Than Mere Words Can Capture Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This exhibit speaks volumes that mere words could never capture. It is sensitively respectful, yet appropriately informative of the horrors experienced on 9/11. We had never been to NY, and truly had no idea of the scope this tragedy encompassed. Suson's photography was haunting, and he personally offered touching stories behind each and every photo and artifact. We feel truly honored to have experienced this exhibit.
AMAZING Experience!! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Tue, Aug 21, 07 11:30 AM	staszak	Male	30-39	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
We arrived early and found 4 other couples also waiting with Sean our host. Turns out Gary, the photographer, was also there that day and we had the priviledge to get to hear his first hand account of being the only photographer allowed at Ground Zero. We took our time and used the headsets to get info on every picture and display. It was worth every minute of our 3.5 hour visit and we were never hurried out and welcomed to stay as long as we liked. It is something I will never forget and this is a must see if you have not yet. It is a very different perspective you will not get anywhere else. Do this before visiting Ground Zero area, it makes things much more meaningful!! Don't rush out, take your time and really soak up the magnitude of that horrible day and also be delighted in the things God uses for good. Whatever you take from it, you won't be the same after the visit here.

An inspirational journey into the lives of those who were involved with the tragedy that is September 11, 2001. This activity is an experience for the senses. There is not enough time to fully comprehend the great depths this activity leads to. Overall this workshop is truly touching to the heart, mind and soul. This tour is highly recommended because of the unique nature with which it is presented and organized. Photographs truly are worth a thousand words, and the images in this workshop are just that and more. Together with the marvelous photography and the artifacts, the experience rings home. A truly touching endeavor, one you will not soon forget.
Two thumbs up! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the recovery process. Gary's pictures are powerful, tastefully displayed and instrumental in capturing emotions of the tragedy. The museum was the most comprehensive history of what happened that we could find. This is a great vehicle to help the families of those that lost their lives heal. Thanks for your efforts Gary.
Heartwrenching Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

The museum is a great place to pay your respects to the departed. You will learn a lot about Ground Zero, the heroism that took place on 911 and afterwards. The stories the pictures tell will take your breath away. It is very emotional. I greatly appreciated having the opportunity to finally pay my respects to all those that died none of which I knew, but their tragic death changed my life as it did for so many.

A "Must See" when in New York City Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Mon, Aug 20, 07 12:00 PM	langils	Female	40-49	International Tourist(s)	Family With Children
Absolutely the highlight for us during our recent trip to New York. We visited the museum with our 4 children (10-13). For those of us who remember Sept 11th, it was incredibly moving and thought provoking. For our two youngest children, they did not remember the events of that day so for them it was an education of sorts. Gary and his staff have created an extraordinary place that should be seen by all who visit the city.
